pib2xml(1)                                   Qualcomm Atheros Open Powerline Toolkit                                  pib2xml(1)

NAME
       pib2xml - print object driven xml editior intructions

SYNOPSIS
       pib2xml [options] file [file] [...]  [&gt;stdout]

DESCRIPTION
       Write XML editor instructions on stdout.  This requires an object definition file that contains the size and name of data
       regions and members within a binary object or file.  Individual data members are presented as XML instructions  that  can
       be used by program pxe to edit PIB files.

OPTIONS
       -f definitions
              The  name  of  the  object definition file that contains the size, name and description of objects within a binary
              file.  The definition file is not modified.  This option is required.  There is no default file.

       -s schema
              The url for the XML schema.  The default schema is piboffset.xsd for the Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Toolkit verion
              of this program.

       -x     Print  an  XML  schema on stdout.  This schema defines the elements and attributes used to define data objects and
              members read from input files.  It can be used to validate XML files used with program pxe.

       -?,--help
              Print program help summary on stdout.  This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.

       -!,--version
              Print program version information on stdout.  This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.
              Use  this option when sending screen dumps to Atheros Technical Support so that they know exactly which version of
              the Linux Toolkit you are using.

ARGUMENTS
       file   The name of a binary file.  The file must have either Thunderbolt/Lightning or Panther/Lynx format or output  will
              be incorrect.  The file is not modified by this program.  Only one such file is permitted on the command line.

EXAMPLES
       The  following  is  an example object definition file that defines a standard ethernet frame and member fields within it.
       The comments and descriptions shown are optional.  The field lengths and field names are not.  Zero-length fields  denote
       arbitrary field groups and are used by program offset to print headings.

          # ========================================
          #
          # ----------------------------------------

          0 header
          6 ODA Own Destination Address
          6 OSA Own Source Address
          2 ET Ethertype or frame length

          # ========================================
          #
          # ----------------------------------------

          0 body
          1500 Payload

       The  following  command  uses  object  definition file ether.txt to identify and display member fields within binary file
       abc.bin as a set of xml instructions that can be used by program xde to edit other files.

          # pib2xml -f ether.txt abc.bin

       The next command writes the xml schema that defines the elements and attributes used in the  edit  instructions  to  file
       data.xsd.  This file can be used to validate xml edit instructions.

          # pib2xml -x &gt; data.xsd
